These individuals all changed the world for different reasons, for example, by improving international relations, transforming the social, cultural, and political scene in our country and worldwide, and perhaps most importantly by advocating peace and equal rights for all people and all races. President Obama, in addition to being the first African-American US president, can be seen as a global leader on the world political scene. He has improved the world in many ways and contributed to maintain peace among superpowers. In my opinion, his finest achievements for our country were when he brought it out of the worst economic recession since the Great Depression and developed policies to give health insurance access to all people. Mohandas Gandhi was a leader of the Indian independence movement under the British rule.
Sacrifice: destruction or surrender of something for the sake of something else. America was once a great nation because of the incredible sacrifices that were made. America is, still, a great nation, but is lacking the sacrifices that were made years ago. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., for example, went to jail to gain freedom for his people.
